All day yesterday workmen were here taking down rusty and leaking gutters and putting up wonderful new ones. This is the last of the things our house inspector said needed to be done, so, knock wood, this is the last big ticket item we will need to do on the house.
I do want wood floors, instead of this horrible carpet; or, as Richard Wilbur put it, "The end of thirst exceeds experience."
Or, as Buddha put it, "You want to end suffering? Stop wanting shit!"

Handyman finished our garage yesterday with a new coat of paint, so in theory our cars can go back in it today (after he picks up the pile of leftover lumber he plans to pick up today). We also have carpet that needs replacing, but the idea of moving all our furniture is so unpleasant... I keep thinking maybe when the kids are out of the house or maybe when the cats slow down...
"...the idea of moving all our furniture..." Yeah, that's mainly what's stopping me. :D
